A Rare Form of Microcephalic Primordial Dwarfism due to NSMCE2 Deficiency (Seckel Syndrome Type 10): A Report of Macular Involvement

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biallelic variants in NSMCE2 (MMS21), which encodes the SUMO E3 ligase subunit of the SMC5/6 chromatin‐maintenance complex, have recently been implicated in microcephalic primordial dwarfism (MPD), corresponding to Seckel syndrome type 10 (OMIM #617246).

Mutations in PCYT1A Cause Spondylometaphyseal Dysplasia with Cone-Rod Dystrophy [PDF]

, 2014
Spondylometaphyseal dysplasia with cone-rod dystrophy is a rare autosomal-recessive disorder characterized by severe short stature, progressive lower-limb bowing, flattened vertebral bodies, metaphyseal involvement, and visual impairment caused by cone ...

Genetic sequencing of children with malrotation and midgut volvulus: A cross‐sectional study

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Intestinal malrotation with midgut volvulus can cause a particularly severe form of pediatric intestinal failure and is often a cause of ultra‐short bowel syndrome (SBS), with longer dependence on parenteral nutrition. While malrotation can be found in several genetic syndromes, most occurrences of this condition are not associated ...

Longitudinal Structure–Function Evaluation in a Patient with CDHR1-Associated Retinal Dystrophy: Progressive Visual Function Loss with Retinal Remodeling

Diagnostics, 2023
Background: Retinal dystrophies related to damaging variants in the cadherin-related family member 1 (CDHR1) gene are rare and phenotypically heterogeneous.

Protein Glutamylation: From Cytoskeleton to Signaling

Med Research, EarlyView.
Tubulin glutamylation, γ‐glutamylation, and nontubulin glutamylation are distinct yet interconnected post‐translational modifications that regulate diverse physiological and pathological processes, including cytoskeletal organization, cell cycle progression, immunity, metabolism, and disease development.

Clinical manifestations of dual‐gene variants in retinitis pigmentosa

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal disease (IRD), whereby each affected individual typically harbours pathogenic variants in a single causative gene, yet the disorder exhibits marked genetic heterogeneity, with more than 100 genes reported to underlie RP.

Dark Choroid in Cone-Rod Dystrophy

, 1992
An unusual pattern of dark choroid in an eight-year-old girl is described. The ophthalmoscopic, fluorescein angiographic and functional changes were indicative of progressive cone-rod dystrophy.

The molecular genetics of cone-rod retinal dystrophy [PDF]

, 1994
Genetic eye disease is an important and common cause of blindness in the developed World. The choroidoretinal dystrophies make up a significant proportion of this group of conditions.

Retinal dystrophies simulating geographic atrophy: A diagnostic challenge

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Geographic atrophy (GA) is the chronic loss of retinal pigment epithelium, photoreceptors and choriocapillaris, marking the dry late stage of age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). GA prevalence is expected to rise in the upcoming decades. Advanced GA leads to central scotomas, reducing visual acuity and quality of life, potentially resulting
